Ciarán Bollard, CEO of The Corporate Governance Institute, warned that dissolving the committee could undermine confidence in Currys' approach "Statements of this kind are becoming more common. We hear companies say: 'we are stepping back from formal ESG structures, but our commitment remains.' In the United States, this has often been driven by political hostility towards ESG.
